In this question, let us first note down all the important information's that have been provided in the question.
The number of people that Adam is cooking for = 14
Amount of turkey required per person = 3/4 pounds
Now
Total amount of turkey required by Adam to cook for 14 people = (3/4) * 14
                                                                                                     = 21/2
So 21/2 pound of turkey is required by Adam to cook for 14 people. This weight of turkey has to be converted to gram first and then to kilogram.
We already know
1 lb = 450 g
Then
21/2 lb = 450 * (21/2) gram
            = 225 * 21
            = 4721 gram
Now again we know
1000 g = 1 kg
4721 gm = (4721/1000) kg
               = 4.721 kg
So Adam needs to have a turkey weighing 4.721 gram to cook for the 14 people. I hope the procedure is clear to you.

Solve the following equation:<br>m - m-1/2 = 1 - m-2/3​
grigory [225]

Answer:

m = \frac{7}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

m - \frac{m-1}{2} = 1 - \frac{m-2}{3}

Multiply through by 6 ( the LCM of 2 and 3 ) to clear the fractions

6m - 3(m - 1) = 6 - 2(m - 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

6m - 3m + 3 = 6 - 2m + 4 , that is

3m + 3 = - 2m + 10 ( add 2m to both sides )

5m + 3 = 10 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

5m = 7 ( divide both sides by 5 )

m = \frac{7}{5}

The radii of Earth and Pluto are 6,371 kilometers and 1,161 kilometers, respectively. Approximately how many spheres the size of
antoniya [11.8K]
The volume of a sphere is (4/3) (pi) (radius cubed).

The volume of one sphere divided by the volume of another one is

 (4/3) (pi) (radius-A)³ / (4/3) (pi) (radius-B)³

Divide top and bottom by (4/3) (pi) and you have     (radius-A)³ / (radius-B)³
and that's exactly the same as
                                                         ( radius-A / radius-B )  cubed.

I went through all of that to show you that the ratio of the volumes of two spheres
is the cube of the ratio of their radii.

Earth radius = 6,371 km
Pluto radius = 1,161 km

Ratio of their radii = (6,371 km) / (1,161 km)

Ratio of their volumes =  ( 6,371 / 1,161 ) cubed = about <u>165.2</u>

Note: 
I don't like the language of the question where it asks "How many spheres...".
This seems to be asking how many solid cue balls the size of Pluto could be
packed into a shell the size of the Earth, and that's not a simple solution.
The solution I have here is simply the ratio of volumes ... how many Plutos
can fit into a hollow Earth if the Plutos are melted and poured into the shell.
That's a different question, and a lot easier than dealing with solid cue balls.

Jacqui has 3 1/2 yards of fabric to make a costume. She used 1/4 of the fabric to make a hat. How much of the fabric did she use
Molodets [167]
To find a quarter you just need to divide 3.5 by 4. So Jacqui uses 0.875 yards of fabric to make a hat.
